Induction heating furnaces are employed for vacuum distillation process to recover and consolidate heavy metals after electrorefining operation. Induction heating furnaces of suitable heating rates are required to be developed for this purpose. Hence it is planned to set up a mock-up induction furnace which will simulate the conditions to be realized in actual induction heated vacuum distillati...

In this article, a hybrid wireless power transfer system, which combines induction heating (IH) and inductive functionalities, is proposed to improve the performance of domestic IH application with small loads weakly coupled distant inductors. Considering basic single-inductor application, system adds secondary inductor series compensation capacitor directly attached ferromagnetic cookware. The...

Induction heating computer simulation is a powerful tool for process design and optimization, induction coil design, equipment selection, as well as education and business presentations. The authors share their vast experience in the practical use of computer simulation for different induction heating and heat treating processes. A comparison of simulation versus the experimental “trial and err...

BACKGROUND Induction heating devices using the induction coil and magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) are the way that the magnetic hyperthermia is heading. OBJECTIVE To facilitate the induction heating of in vivo magnetic nanoparticles in hyperthermia experiments on large animals. METHODS An induction heating device using a planar coil was designed with a magnetic field frequency of 328 kHz. The...

Ferromagnetic two-dimensional (2D) ultrathin nanosheets hold great promise for next generation electronics. Ferromagnetic metal-free materials that usually possess only an s/p electronic configuration with weak spin-orbit coupling and a large spin relaxation time, would play an important role in constructing future spintronic devices. However, the absence of an intrinsic spin ordering structure...

Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H7 infection causes several hundred cases of food poisoning every year in Japan. In severe cases, this type of food poisoning can be fatal. In the present study, we examined the induction of HSP70 in E. coli O157:H7 cells at various temperatures and the thermotolerance of E. coli O157:H7 cells alone and in contaminated food following pre-heating. We evalu...
